I tried adding www-plugins/adobe-flash -32bit to the package.use file and Firefox still crashes. Thanks, dhk

I've had a problem since FF 3.0.8 when I ask to print an article from 'Spectator' magazine (needed to get the story in 1 page). I submitted a bug to Firefox, but nothing has happened. I've taken to using Konqueror instead, when I read 'Spectator', which doesn't suffer from the problem. -- ,, SUPPORT ___//___, Philip Webb ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Cities Centre, University of Toronto TRANSIT`-O--O---' purslowatchassdotutorontodotca

When I went to ebay it crashed and the only output was: Illegal instruction. Then I uninstalled nspluginwrapper: # emerge -Cp nspluginwrapper Firefox crashed after going to ebay. Then I installed nspluginwrapper: # emerge nspluginwrapper Firefox still crashed after going to ebay. What else? Thanks all

Of course, whatever is broke needs to be fixed but you got to find it first. I don't see any showckwave stuff but isn't .js java script? Sorry for that really long line. :/ Dale :-) :-)

Just close Firefox, rename the directory with .old on the end, then restart firefox and see if that helps. If it still crashes, you may want to try opening it in a console to see if that helps any. You may get a error of some kind to check into. Just additional thoughts. Dale :-) :-)
